Regularized Perturbation Theory for Ab initio Solids
Second-order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) for ab initio simulations of solids is often limited by divergence or over-correlation issues, particularly in metallic, narrow-gap, and dispersion-stabilized systems. We develop and assess three regularized second-order perturbation theories: $κ$-MP2, $σ$-MP2, and the size-consistent Brillouin-Wigner approach (BW-s2), across metals, semiconductors, molecular crystals, and rare gas solids. BW-s2 achieves high accuracy for cohesive energies…

MiDeSeC: A Dataset for Mitosis Detection and Segmentation in Breast Cancer Histopathology Images
The MiDeSeC dataset is created through H&E stained invasive breast carcinoma, no special type (NST) slides of 25 different patients captured at 40x magnification from the Department of Medical Pathology at Ankara University. The slides have been scanned by 3D Histech Panoramic p250 Flash-3 scanner and Olympus BX50 microscope. As several possible mitosis shapes exist, it is crucial to have a large dataset to cover all the cases. Accordingly, a total of 50 regions is selected from glass slides fo…

A variational approach to the emergence of domain structures in magnetostrictive solids
We consider a variational model for magnetoelastic solids in the large-strain setting with the magnetization field defined on the unknown deformed configuration. Through a simultaneous linearization of the deformation and sharp-interface limit of the magnetization with respect to the easy axes, performed in terms of $Γ$-convergence, we identify a variational model describing the formation of domain structures and accounting for magnetostriction in the small-strain setting. Our analysis incorpo…

Sheriffs with shields and batons.
You don't often see it expressed in a visible way like this, but such state violence ultimately backs up all property ownership. Homelessness only exists because if people entered and made a home in a vacant or underused property, the state would use essentially unlimited force to evict them.

Intermediate-temperature specific heat of solids and the rationale behind the Maier-Kelley empirical formula
The heat capacity of solids at intermediate-to-high temperatures is of fundamental importance to several fields ranging from geology to material science. It depends on a variety of factors, with anharmonicity and, ultimately, melting playing a pivotal role. In this work we develop a first-principles model from an analytically tractable semi-harmonic oscillator Hamiltonian. The resulting specific heat expression depends not only on the Einstein temperature of the material but also on other physi…

Classification of Histopathology Slides with Persistence Homology Convolutions
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are a standard tool for computer vision tasks such as image classification. However, typical model architectures may result in the loss of topological information. In specific domains such as histopathology, topology is an important descriptor that can be used to distinguish between disease-indicating tissue by analyzing the shape characteristics of cells. Current literature suggests that reintroducing topological information using persistent homology can im…
